"A Remarkable Case.

One of the most remarkable murder trials
on record was that of Wolfe, convicted at
the last term of court in Steele of the mur-
der of Mrs. Unger, near Dawson. The
murder was one of the most brutal known
to the court and the trial was exciting and
intensely interesting. The remarkable fact
in connection with the trial, as learned
from a lawyer who was in attendance, is
that not one exception appears upon the
record. Attorney Dodge, of jamestown,
conducted the defense, and the territory
was represented by District Attorney
Walker, of Steele. When one takes into
consideration the fact that the life of hui
man being was at stake, the utter absence
OF exceptions is indeed remarkable, and
speaks we'll for the rulings of the court.
Mr.. Dodge, who defended the prisoner, is
one Of the best lawyers in the territory,
and does not allow opportunities for rea-
sonable exceptions in the interest of his
clients to pass unimproved. Wolfe was
convicted of the murder and is now serv-
ing life sentence in the penitentiary in
this city: AS he is but % years of age, the
penalty is severe, but none too heavy for
the atrocious crime of which he was
guilty.

Another Wife Beater Arres ed.

Herman Paul. who lives south of the
city, was arrested Monday night for the
crime Of beating his wife. He was tried
before Judge Hare Tuesday and fined SO
and costs. He pleaded guilty to the charge,
giving as his reasons that his wife desired
to 60 to dance with young man who
had invited her and whose invitation she
had accepted. It appears that this is not
the first quarrel between Mr.. and Mrs.
Paul because of the woman's love for the
company of other men, and the accused
man claimed that all oral arguments hay
ing failed to preserve his dignity and good
name as the head of the family, he was
compelled to resortto muscular demonstra-
tions He was given some very good ad-
yice-and, by the way, Judge Hare is be-
coming famous for the grace and ELOQUENT
pathos with which he talks to the trans
gressors who come before him-and hay
ing promised to be more gentle in the ftl-
tqre, Paul returned to his home to transfer
the advice to his frolicsome wife.

1t Comes With Sadness,

An item in the st. Paul Globe giving an
account of the New Year ceremonies in the
Jail of that city is particularly touching
and pathetic to the people Of the Missouri
slope. The reporter, in speaking of the
conduct of prisoners, says: "Frank
J: Mead and j. D. Martin, both
der, were not to be seen among the
prisoners. Both sat up stairs and were ap-
parently in no mood to participate in such
an entertainment. Both appeared to be in
very low spirits" This report comes to
the people Of Bismarck and Mandan, who
knew Frank Mead as one of the jolliest
and most respected citizens of the sister
cities, with deep and painful sadness. On
New Year, 1886, he was entertaining sew
eral of his friends of this city at his pleas

The French man Denies.

An innocent appearing French youth
walked briskly into the TRIBUNE Office last
evening and with string of emphatic ad-
jectives in his native tongue demanded a
retractiOn. '1 Hs
( "What do you desire retracteds' was
asked. ST..
He then went on in long and somewhat
rambling explanation that he was the
Frenchman to whom reference was made
in yesterdays TRIBUNE as having been
instrumental in creating disturbance be-
tween Herman Paul and his "wife." He
said he never, never. in all his life did
anything of the kind, that he was a good
man and that the man who gave the paper
the information was liar.
Having been assured that his statement
would be given publication he permitted
the staff to live, and returning his pistol to
his pocket walked out into the frosty air,
whistling another.

twenty-five cars each were sent out, and
yesterday six trains, 150 cars in ali, went
on their westward journey. The trains
were made up entirely of cars loaded with

imported from Germany, owing to Amer

So Goes the World.

The conduct of Alex. W. Cameron, for
one time respected as candid, honorable
citizen, is not calculated to elevate that
gentleman in the esteem of his fellow-men.
He located on farm southeast of the city
in early days, and at the time of the famous
boom of May, 1888, he could have sold for
500 per acre. He made final proof in April
'81, but falling into financial trouble he
mortgaged the farm and went to Montana.
The mortgages were Geo. T. Webster and
citizen of New York. Patent had not
been issued to Cameron, and he decided
that the proper thing would be for him to
offer REIMBURSEMENT of the land to the
government. He gave his REIMBURSEMENT
to Mr.. Daniel D. Falconer who presented it
at the land office III this city and on the
same day made a homestead filing on the
land. The mortgages who had given
$4,000 on the land were ignorant of this
transaction and when they next heard from
Cameron he was in Victoria, B. c., beyond
their reach. Discovering the game which
had been so carefully played, Mr.. Webster,
asSOciating himself with Land Attorney
DAVIS, ferreted out the facts IN the case and
found that aside from the REIMBURSEMENT
Cameron had sold ten acres of the land to
Charles Kupitz for the sum of $3.50.
The case was submitted to the general
land Office and decision has been received
reinstating the entry. This places the land
in the possession OF Cameron, notwith-
standing his REIMBURSEMENT and virtually
compels him to own the land which he
sought to dispose of to his brother-in-law,
apparently for the purpose of relieving
hlmself Of the obligations to the mort
gagees. {"
1t is now learned that the officers of the
land office in this city recommended the re-
instatement of the entry. Cameron has
many respected relatives in Burleigh coun-
ty who have reason to be heartily ashamed

Legislation They Want.

Black Hills Times: Before leaving for
Bismarck Frank Washabaugh was con-
suited by large number of stockmen
who desire some legislation this winter
that will be effective in stamping out con-
tagious diseases among horses and cattle.
At this time stockmen are alarmed at the
rumors of glanders, that is said to exist in
several places on the range. Mr.. Washa-
baugh promised to give it due attention,
and we know he will make good his prom
ise. An ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure.

A Romantic Sequel.

There is a sequel to the case of Herman
Paul, who was arrested Monday, for whip
ping his wife, and it has shade of romance
which adds color to the tale. Paul having
been fined 50 and costs for the harsh treat
ment of his @wife" returned to his home
and Wednesday appeared again on charges
brought by his wife. 1t appears that Paul
had been working about the city several
months, attending to the work about the
Northern Pacific refrigerator and raising
garden vegetables for sale in the Bismarck
market. He was warned by his friends that
if he did not return to his home on the
farm and pay more attention to his "wife"
her affections would be transferred to some
of the gay young settlers in the neighbor-
hood and he would lose her. Paul laughed
with scorn at this advice and went on with
his work in the city until late in the fall
when he returned to his home to embrace
She did not greet him with her old affec-
ton and the light of love had gone from
her eye. 1t then dawned upon Paul that
his friends were correct in their surmiSes
and that a shy and foxy Frenchman had
won the devotion of the wife. Having be-
come convinced OF I10 unQu6 1nClInaCy OF
the Frenchman and his wife he proceeded,
in the language of the philosopher, to turn
himself loose" and after transforming the
guilty Frenchman's face into map Of the
revolutionary war he gave the erring
woman an earnest though harmless
trOuncing.
Yesterday, as Paul and his "wife'' ap-
peared in court, the venomous Frenchman
and one Of his pals were present to testify
to Pauls cruelty. A few questions had
been asked, and as Paul was telling the
court of the conduct of his wife, she inter
rupted him with the significant remark:
"Vhel, Why don't you marry me, dhen ?"
This was paralytic stroke to the court
and bystanders, and for the first time in
the history of the case was it known that
Paul and the girl had not been married
The dazed and bewildered Paul looked at
the girl, then at the court and then at the
snake-eyed Frenchman and his dangling
pal. The crisis had arrived, and, bound
that his designing enemies should not be
victors in the contest for the girl, he replied
that he was perfectly willing to wed. In
less than five minutes Paul and the girl
were married and with victorious wag of
the head the groom laughed the witnesses
out of court The usual good wishes might
be extended to Mr.. and Mrs. Paul, but it is
feared that large stock of horseshoes will
be necessary to retain Paul's novel luck.

Full Explanation of 1t.

Press and Dakotaian: Along with the
arrival of United States Marshal Maratta
comes the information that he has not re-
signed his position and does not intend to
resign. This is what his chief deputy and
confidential secretary, j. H. C. Young, says
and he is in a position to know the mar
shaPs intentions. The report originated in
Washington and was not based upon any
act or utterance on the part of Marshal
Maratta. It was juicy morsel for some
of the northerners who do not like the
marshal and he let them chew it.
